skunk sprayed car

[340SNOTCH]

Anyone know what to use to get skunk smell off a car? My wife ran over a skunk with her heater on and the whole car smells bad. Even worse, she drove my barracuda to her work this morning without telling me. Man I hope it comes back in one piece.

I'm glad it's her car and not my truck or cuda. I heard vinegar may work. She already had her car washed and that didn't work. I need to hose her car down with something.

Hydrogen peroxide + baking soda + liquid dish soap

1 quart 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, ¼ cup baking soda, and 1 to 3 tablespoons dishwashing liquid.

For the interior find a detail shop that has an ozone machine. They will run it in the car while the car is running with the a/c on to circulate the air. It will neutralize the odor in the car.
